Indonesia’s government will include power wheeling in its renewable energy bill, which will allow private companies to sell electricity directly to consumer through transmission owned by state-run electricity company PLN.

Indonesia’s State Electricity Company PLN has said that it will mobilise funding from foreign resources, given that it needs an investment of around 72 trillion ringgit (4.7 billion USD) per year until 2030 in order to support electricity projects.

Indonesia's state-owned electricity company PLN has axed a project to develop a coal-fired power plant as the country chases its long-delayed commitments to cut carbon dioxide emissions.

Indonesia is planning to build power plants with a capacity of up to 41,000 MW in the next decade, according to a draft of the state electricity company PT Perusahaan Listrik Negara (PLN)'s electricity procurement plan (RUPTL) for the 2021-2030 period.

Indonesian state-owned electricity giant PLN has secured a 500-million-USD “green loan” with a guarantee from the World Bank’s Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA) to keep seven renewable energy projects alive amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Asian Development Bbank (ADB) has approved a 600-million-USD loan to help PLN, Indonesia’s state-owned power company, expand electricity access and promote the use of renewable energy in the eastern region of the country.

The power systems in Indonesia’s Jakarta capital and Java island have been recovered nearly completely on early August 5, 12 hours after a massive blackout occurred in the afternoon of the previous day.
